Volunteering

Additional volunteer opportunities across the country on public lands can be found at www.volunteer.gov.
For more information on our partners that offer volunteer opportunities, or to find out how to become one of those partners, please contact Rachel LaMedica at rachel.lamedica@usda.gov or (503) 668-1776.
